Non-thermal acceleration mechanisms in supernova remnant shells
Anne Decourchelle
A review of the main issues in the field of particle acceleration in Supernova Remnants is provided in the context of future X-ray observations with Simbol-X. After a summary of th…
Science with Simbol-X
F. Fiore, M. Arnaud, U. Briel +20
Simbol-X is a French-Italian mission, with a participation of German laboratories, for X-ray astronomy in the wide 0.5-80 keV band. Taking advantage of emerging technology in mirro…
A physical interpretation of the jet-like X-ray emission from supernova remnant W49B
M. Miceli, A. Decourchelle, J. Ballet +4
In the framework of the study of supernova remnants and their complex interaction with the interstellar medium and the circumstellar material, we focus on the galactic supernova re…
XMM-Newton observation of SNR RX J1713.7-3946
G. Cassam-Chenai, A. Decourchelle, J. Ballet +2
We present the first results of the observations of the supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 (also G347.3-0.5) obtained with the EPIC instrument on board the XMM-Newton satellite. We…
A new population of X-ray transients in the Galactic Centre
Masaaki Sakano, Robert S. Warwick, Anne Decourchelle +1
A comparison of the XMM-Newton and Chandra Galactic Centre (GC) Surveys has revealed two faint X-ray transients with contrasting properties. The X-ray spectrum of XMM J174544-2913.…
The XMM-Newton view of the Galactic Centre
Masaaki Sakano, Robert S. Warwick, Anne Decourchelle
In X-rays, the Galactic Centre (GC) Region appears as a complex of diffuse thermal and non-thermal X-ray emission intermixed with a population of luminous discrete sources. Here we…
